One Of A Kind.
I miss the way you talk, I can still see the way that you walk. The pull on the strings in my heart are never to go. Your the dream that wanders my nights, Your the one who always was right, And the one thing I’ll think of tonight, is why did you go. And the feeling of loving you, feeling of hugging you, Pulling you closer and closer again. The days passing by bring me constant remind, I miss you, you were one of a kind. All the days and nights that we spent, Travelling ’round to the places we went, Telling jokes, making rhymes, singing songs, just between you and I, And the way you spoke about life, While I listened to your words in delight. Thinking ’bout all the things that you did, makes me wonder today, Of the feeling of loving you, feeling of hugging you, Pulling you closer and closer again. The days passing by bring me constant remind, I miss you, you were one of a kind. So now I’ll leave it at this, And I’ll sing this song when I’ll miss, The times you smiled, the remarks you made, The poems you told me, the music we made. If I go, I will bring you along, And will you add the chords to my song. Be watching above everyday, Keep the bonfire burning, With the feeling of loving you, Feeling of hugging you, Pulling you closer and closer again. The days passing by bring me constant remind, I miss you, you were one of a kind. The feeling of loving you, Feeling of hugging you, Pulling you closer and closer again. You’ve taken our memories up to the sky, Just remember darling, you were one of a kind.

Fields of Athenry.
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling, “Michael, they have taken you away. For you stole Trevelyan’s corn, So the young might see the morn, Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay”. Low lie the fields of Athenry, Where once we watched the small free birds fly. Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing, It’s so lonely ’round the fields of Athenry. By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling, “Nothing matters, Mary, when you’re free. Against the famine and the crown, I rebelled, they cut me down, Now you must raise our child with dignity”. Low lie the fields of Athenry, Where once we watched the small free birds fly. Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing, It’s so lonely ’round the fields of Athenry. By a lonely harbour wall, She watched the last star falling, As the prison ship sailed out against the sky. For she lived in hope and pray, For her love in Botany Bay, It’s so lonely ’round the fields of Athenry. Low lie the fields of Athenry, Where once we watched the small free birds fly. Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing, It’s so lonely ’round the fields of Athenry. Low lie the fields of Athenry, Where once we watched the small free birds fly. Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing, It’s so lonely ’round the fields of Athenry. It’s so lonely ’round the fields of Athenry.

Someone To Remember Me.
I hope you see as you look down, All of this love gathered around, I hope you hear what people say, I hope you know the role you play. You were my rock, you were my shield, This space you leave, no one can fill, You held the room, you cast a spell, You’ll always be remembered well. And when my days have come and gone, I hope I leave more right than wrong. I want to feel this love I see, When I am gone, I hope there’ll be someone to remember me. Though you’re not here, not here with me, A part of you will always be. I’ll hear your laughter, I’ll see the smile, I’ll feel you near once in a while. And when my days have come and gone, I hope I leave more right than wrong, I want to feel this love I see, When I am gone, I hope there’ll be someone to remember me. And when the days have come and gone, I hope I’ll leave more right than wrong. I want to feel this love I see, When I am gone, I hope there’ll be someone to remember, Someone to remember me. Someone to remember me.

Harvest Moon.
Come a little bit closer, Hear what I have to say. Just like children sleeping, We could dream this night away. But there’s a full moon rising, Let’s go dancing in the light, We know where the music’s playing, Let’s go out and feel the night. Because I’m still in love with you, I want to see you dance again, Because I’m still in love with you, On this harvest moon. When we were strangers, I watched you from afar. When we were lovers, I loved you with all my heart, But now it’s getting late, And the moon is climbing high. I want to celebrate, See it shining in your eye, Because I’m still in love with you, I want to see you dance again, Because I’m still in love with you, On this harvest moon. Because I’m still in love with you, I want to see you dance again, Because I’m still in love with you, On this harvest moon.

Every time (When We Are Gone).
Every time I hear a sweet bird singing, I think of you and I my dear, I think of you and I. When I hear the evening bells a-ringing, I hang my head and cry my dear, I hang my head and cry.
And they will ring, And they will ri – i – g, When we are gone.
Every time I hear your soft voice humming, My heart jumps in my breast my dear, My heart jumps in my breast. And until I hear your footsteps coming, I sure can know no rest my dear, I sure can know no rest.
I will love you. I will love you – ou – ou. When we are gone. I will love you. I will love you – ou – ou, When we are gone.
